1. Walk Palm Canyon Drive - 
the Walk of Stars, the Forever Marilyn statue, the mid-century architecture, the boutiques. Start here, every time 🎬

2. Ride the Aerial Tramway -
the world’s largest rotating tram car takes you from desert floor to 8,516ft in 10 minutes. Every first-timer who does it asks the same thing: “why did I almost skip this?” 🚡

3. VillageFest on a Thursday night - 
Palm Canyon Drive closes to traffic and becomes a free street fair with 200+ vendors, live music, food and local art 🎨

4. Indian Canyons - 
On the ancestral land of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians. One of the most beautiful natural landscapes in California 🌿

5. The Spa at Séc-he - 
built over a 12,000-year-old sacred hot mineral spring right in downtown. Ranked among the top spas in North America. Even one hour here changes your understanding of this place 💧

6. The Uptown Design District - 
vintage stores, boutiques, Cheeky’s for breakfast, Birba for dinner. The neighbourhood that makes you want to move here 🛍️

7. Golden hour, anywhere - 
set an alarm and get outside. The light on the San Jacinto Mountains in the morning and evening is the thing people never stop talking about 🌅

Save this to help you plan your perfect Palm Springs trip!🌵

Day 1 -Arrive, explore & ease in

🏨 Check in - Spirit of Sofia
Try not to spend the whole trip by the pool on day one. Two pools, hot tubs, lush gardens and mountain views - it sets the tone immediately.

🌅 Brunch & explore -Cheeky’s
 After brunch, take a wander down Palm Canyon Drive - the shops, boutiques and people watching ease you into the trip perfectly.

☀️ Afternoon - Palm Springs Aerial Tramway 
About 10 minutes from downtown. Rotating tram, 8,500 feet up, alpine forest at the top. The views will stop you in your tracks.

🌆 Evening - Del Rey for dinner, Bar Issi for drinks 
Start at Del Rey inside Villa Royale - Spanish-inspired tapas, marble bar, firelit outdoor patio. Then head to Bar Issi at the Thompson Hotel for cocktails and the scene.

Day 2 - Adventure & pool day

🌄 Morning - Indian Canyons hiking trails 
Early start - the canyons are about 10 minutes south of the Spirit of Sofia. Give it 2 to 3 hours. Bring water and wear closed-toe shoes.

🥗 Lunch - Spencer’s Restaurant 
A proper Palm Springs institution - outdoor patio, great food and the kind of setting that makes a post-hike lunch feel like an occasion.

🏊 Afternoon - Back to the Spirit of Sofia 
Straight to the pool. This is the afternoon you’ve been waiting for. Two pools, a hot tub and nowhere to be. 

🌙 Evening - The Tailor Shop 
Speakeasy-style craft cocktails and an atmosphere where one drink turns into three. You’ve been warned.

Day 3 - Culture, discovery & a slow finish

🛻 Morning - San Andreas Fault Offroad Jeep Tour 
Around 2 hours - book in advance. Equal parts thrilling and humbling.

🏛️ Late Morning -Agua Caliente Cultural Plaza 
Fascinating, unhurried and the kind of stop that gives the whole trip more depth.

🥗 Lunch - FARM
Farm-to-table, French-inspired, beautiful outdoor patio. 

🛍️ Afternoon - North Palm Canyon Drive & the vintage shops 
The best concentration of mid-century boutiques, galleries and independent stores in the valley.

🌅 Last night -Workshop Kitchen + Bar 
Four-time Michelin recognised, modern American and a great outdoor patio for a group last night.
